Materials and Methods
Seed lot details
Seeds were collected from various European locations (Table 1)
in September / October 2002 and sent by air-freight to
Wakehurst Place, UK. Seeds were collected from a minimum
of five trees per location and dispatched within 3 d of
collection. To allow a comparison of seed development times
and environmental conditions during development, the
timing of flower fall was recorded at each seed location. This

Figures in brackets refer to results of a small scale preliminary study conducted in 2001 using seeds from Scotland and France. Values are 
± 1 SE 
of the mean. Values within the same column were compared by One-way 
ANOVA
, followed by Fisher’s LSD test. Those followed by the same 
letter are not significantly different (P 
> 0.05).
